Tokyo Rose & the Democrats - The Firearms Forum

HOW TRUE, HOW TRUE !

I remember hearing OL' Rosie, just days after landing in Northern Australia in the spring of 1942. The company had a radio we could listen to for an hour or so. We, heard her saying,"Welcome to the War that will be the end of your life,and your family, wife or girl friend will forget all about you'" It was something like that.She even knew the name of our Army Unit. We all thought it was great to be recognized by her. She always played Big Band Music, that was great For the next 36 months it was the same crap, all the way to the Philppine Islands .Gosh ! I don't miss her. Joe

Anyone who remembers anything about World War II, or has studied anything about World War II, will understand and remember that during World War II, the Japanese developed a way to demoralize the American forces. The Japanese psychological warfare experts developed a message they felt would work.
They gave their psychological warfare script to their famous broadcaster "Tokyo Rose" and every day she would broadcast this same message packaged in different ways, hoping it would have a negative impact on American GI's morale.

What was that demoralizing message?

It had three main points:
1 Your President is lying to you.
2. This war is illegal.
3. You cannot win the war

Does this sound familiar?
Is it because
Tokyo Hillary,
Tokyo Harry,
Tokyo Teddy
Tokyo Nancy ,
Tokyo Durbin,
Tokyo Kerry,
etc. have all learned from the former enemies of our country and have picked up the same message and are broadcasting it on
Tokyo CNN,
Tokyo ABC,
Tokyo CBS,
Tokyo NBC,
etc., to our troops?

The only difference is that they claim to support our troops before they demoralize them.

Come to think of it... Tokyo Rose told the American Troops she was on their side, also

I remember her well.

No difference between today's Tokyo, whomever, in Congress and her. It is a sad commentary on our leadership today.....

Excellent post, Bruce. I wish I could disagree with your reasoning, but unfortunately, I can't. The politicians and organizations you named are nothing more than mouthpieces for the liberal-socialist agenda in this country, just as Tokyo Rose spoke for the Japanese militarists in World War II.
